i've been so frustrated since i was old enough to think globally about the state of america. i feel like every other country is just looking at us and shaking their heads in shame. i could go on and blame the bush administration for all of this, but it would be unfair, considering we the people are the reason he has the job he does. he is a fuck-up, that is obvious. what will it take for america to wake the fuck up and realize that the rest of the world doesn't need to be policed by us when we can't even police ourselves?
i was reading the rolling stone interview with chris martin of coldplay and he mentioned his thoughts of having a global election for the us president. imagine every member of the world casting their vote on who they think should run our country? it should not be something to imagine, it should be common practice. i know that outside opinion affects my day-to-day life strongly and anybody would be lying if they said it didn't. america is so bad at taking criticism that instead of taking it to positively change, we outcast the country and deploy troops.
i stopped reading newspapers and watching american news, instead i listen to the BBC media player, because i want real news, not which hollywood celebrity is getting botox. i need to start travelling abroad and see the rest of this world. i'm always so intrigued by meeting people from other countries and i'm never shy to ask their opinion of our nation and i can not help but to agree with how ignorant we are.
restore diplomacy. clean up our image. it isn't too late. think globally. UNITE! forget the past, lets just make a change, it has to start from within.
this is sounding the alarm,
bam
i sincerely believe that obama as a president will be a big step in cleaning up our image and diplomacy.
